What is puffed rice? How it tastes? & Where can I get it?!
In my mother language (Bengali) it is called as 'muri'.
When you break it you will get powders of it and when it is pasted it looks like wheat ( in Bengali 'ata'). It also tastes like wheat. In our country's ( Bangladesh) villages it is taken as cheap snacks.
You can find it in only Bangladesh where it is actually produced and no other country you can find it other than the exported one from Bangladesh.

Puffed Rice
ingredients
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 cups unsweetened puffed rice
directions
Set a 12-by-18-inch sheet of parchment on a large baking sheet and oil the paper. Have a kitchen towel ready.
In a medium saucepan, cook the brown sugar with the lemon juice over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar melts, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until richly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Working quickly, stir in the puffed rice until coated, then immediately scrape the mixture onto 1 end of the baking sheet.
Fold the paper over the rice, cover with the kitchen towel and roll into a tight 3-inch log. Unwrap and let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes. Using a serrated knife, gently slice the log crosswise 1/2 inch thick and serve.
